🌐 Living by One's Own Wits: The World Majority in Search of Independent Decision-Making
On October 10, the Valdai Discussion Club hosted a presentation of the report “The World Majority and Its Interests.”
💬 The moderator of the event, Timofey Bordachev, lead author and editor of the report, explained that this refers to the absolute majority of countries in the world that are not directly involved in either the military-political conflict between Russia and the West or the confrontation between China and the United States, and prefer not to take sides in these confrontations. How are the interests of countries in this group formed and evolving? What can we expect from them in the future and how will their behaviour affect the development of international politics and the global economy?
💬 Lidiya Kulik, PhD in History; Head of India Studies, SKOLKOVO School of Management; Senior Research Fellow, Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, called the study extremely timely. Having considered India as a typical example, she pointed out that, despite the diversity of the world majority, the distinctive feature of its countries is that, while they do not want to join any blocs, they demand maximum respect for their position. In each of these countries, there are objectively formed interest groups that are oriented toward different blocs and different sides of the confrontation. This creates a new phenomenon, a kind of “multi-alignment”.
💬 Nourhan ElSheikh, Professor of Political Science at Cairo University; Member of the Egyptian Council for International Affairs, believes that the increasing role of the world majority is one of the largest transformations in the world. She emphasised that the world majority is an established fact, the significance of which is growing. “This is a key phenomenon that is necessary for both the Global South and the entire world,” she said, adding that it probably makes sense to institutionalise it and create within its framework some tools for coordinating activities in international structures.
💬 Mayya Nikolskaya, Acting Director of the Centre for African Studies at the Institute of International Studies at MGIMO University and co-author of the report, clarified that when speaking about the majority of countries in the world being outside of global confrontations, it should be clarified that this is only about non-alignment with one camp or another. They can very well serve as an arena for confrontation, and, for example, African countries are precisely the field in which the competition between the United States and China is most obvious. According to Nikolskaya, two trends are currently being observed among African countries: one aimed at reforming the existing global structure and one aimed at finding alternative options.

🖐️ For quite a long time now, an opinion has been forming in scientific, expert and political circles about the increasing importance of a certain range of countries, which goes by different names: “developing”, “the Global South”, and “the rest”.
The term “Global Majority” introduced in the first year of the Special Military Operation (SVO) by Russian experts seems to be quite suitable, writes Ivan Safranchuk for the 21st Annual Meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club.

Features of the ‘Global Majority’: Increasing Importance with Limited Subjectivity
For quite a long time now, an opinion has been forming in scientific, expert and political circles about the increasing importance of a certain range of countries, which goes by different names: “developing”, “the Global South”, and “the rest”. The term “Global…
🗺️ The notion of “World Majority” could be used as a synonym of “international plurality”, in contrast to the Western-manufactured notion of an “international community”.
The main gain of that terminological innovation would be to offer the conditions of possibility for the emergence of a post-Western order based on respect for diversity.
This is morally desirable, and practically possible, as BRICS has already demonstrated, writes Fabiano Mielniczuk for the 21st Annual Meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club.

The Global Majority and Order Based on Respect for Diversity
There is a shared understanding among practitioners of international relations that the unipolar moment of the 1990's is gone and that we now live in a multipolar world. That the change has already occurred is reflected by the emergence of a new lexicon in…
📆 ANNOUNCEMENT: On November 29 at 11:00 Moscow Time (GMT+3), the Valdai Discussion Club will host a discussion titled: “Russia, the Global South, and the World Majority.”
Amid the fundamental changes in the world order and global economy, the countries of the Global South are playing an increasingly significant role. The development of cooperation between Russia and the world majority requires a deeper understanding and consideration of the interests of these countries.
The Global South countries are increasingly declaring their independent positions and setting goals, while maintaining close ties with the United States, the European Union and the international economic institutions they control. For Russian foreign policy, it is necessary to understand this duality, take it into account in practical interaction with these countries, and also comprehend the significance of this phenomenon and the interests of its participants.
❓What is the phenomenon of the countries of the modern Global South?
❓What real influence do these countries have?
❓How can they influence modern international political and economic institutions?
❓What areas of cooperation with these countries are the most promising for Russia?
The participants in the discussion will try to answer these and other questions.
🎙️ Speakers:
🇷🇺 Lydia Kulik, Head of India Studies at Skolkovo School of Management
🇷🇺 Denis Degterev, Editor-in-Chief, Jounal of the Institute for African Studies RAS, professor HSE
🇳🇴 Glenn Diesen, Professor, University of South-Eastern Norway
Moderator:
🗣 Timofei Bordachev, Programme Director of the Valdai Discussion Club
